<A NAME="sec4"><H3>Description</H3></A>
<P><B><I>binary_negate</I></B> is the function object class that is the return type for the function adaptor <SAMP><A HREF="not2.html">not2()</A></SAMP>. <SAMP>not2()</SAMP>, known as a negator, takes a binary predicate function object as its argument and returns a binary predicate function object that is the complement of the original. </P>
<P>Note that <SAMP><A HREF="not2.html">not2()</A></SAMP> works only with function objects that are defined as subclasses of the class <B><I><A HREF="binary-function.html">binary_function</A></I></B>.</P>
